i’ve got a bit of a project coming up, so my next few days are shot.
i did manage to get a video in tonight, which was my plan for the day recreation-wise, so that’s good. it was a Verneer production that i enjoyed. won’t get to put it to use until Sunday at the earliest, [...]
i stayed out of a definite -EV situation by skipping the tables on friday night. tonight i got home from work and got in about an hour. -3 BI, which i’m beginning to think is a weekend trend for me. saturday nights are horrible it seems.
the tables are almost all closed down by the time [...]
i probably won’t be getting any hands in tonight. or at least i hope i don’t. the guys are coming over to jam, and i have full intentions on drinking some ice cold beer. that means if i play, it should be on Tilt at the $2 SnG’s, lol.
actually, i should either play PS3, or [...]
i’ve gotten in about 1,200 hands since the last post. i ran 20ptbb/100 to the good, so that’s good.
here’s my biggest loss:
now that i’ve already spoiled the ending, i’ll tell you what i think i learned. when the river pairs the board on what was originally top pair, check/call the river if i’m relying on [...]
although at some point you’d figure someone like this can sit back and say “i’m plenty fast”.
sorry for the recent blog downtime guys. i didn’t notice because i’d been busy working, and when i did see that the site was down, it took 12 hours to get it back up.
i must say that i’m not at all impressed with my host for this site (ANhosting), although i suppose they do their [...]
it happens. it happens to me a lot. so much so that i’m surprized i haven’t learned to knock it off yet. but, i’m coming closer.
i take a bad beat, or worse yet, an acceptable beat. i’ve taken several in the past two days. AI on the flop with AA v KQ where he lands [...]
habit alert - i just realized this, i tend to play cards, review my session, think about my big/question hands, set them up in a replayer, blog about them, hit “save”, go to bed, sleep on them, and wake up having answered my own question so i never hit “publish”.
probably 35% of what i write [...]
i just needed a title. the hand was a no brainer. it also ran into JTs from the aggro shortStack, and AQo from the guy who was trying to claim the shortStack’s shove. of course, i disagreed and shoved my stack, and that’s the big hand of the night.
the summer gardening catalog showed up yesterday. [...]
alright, i jumped into some $50NL games last night at the old place, and ended up in this hand.
basically, it’s limped to the sb who raises. i’m in the bb with KK so i raise him. he calls. his pop could have been a range of probably [AJ+, TT+]. his call of my bet makes [...]
